Thanks Keith,

Running Suse 9.0 on my box and uploading to a site that has php 
programming and MySQL but not MySQL web interface.

http://www.greenwebhost.net/hostingfeatures.htm

Do I need this or do I need to upload phpMyAdmin?

Apologies for more question, but I am really in the dark.

How do I tell Apache about the .php files, I have a index.php file that 
I presume initiates the site in some way?

Thanks again, Stuart.
